We consider indecomposable representations of the Klein four group over a field of characteristic $2$ and of a cyclic group of order $pm$ with $p,m$ coprime over a field of characteristic $p$. For each representation we explicitly describe…
Consider a finite group $G$ of order $n$ with a prime divisor $p$. In this article, we establish, among other results, that if the Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$ is neither cyclic nor generalized quaternion, then there exists a bijection $f$…
This is an exposition of homotopical results on the geometric realization of semi-simplicial spaces. We then use these to derive basic foundational results about classifying spaces of topological categories, possibly without units. The…
In this paper we consider simplicial families, that is, simplicial objects indexed by a simplicial set. We develop a method to construct family hypercover refinements of a cover family based on the notion of \emph{n-spans} that we introduce…
This paper is a significant contribution to a general programme aimed to classify all projective irreducible representations of finite simple groups over an algebraically closed field, in which the image of at least one element is…
We explain why geometric realization commutes with Cartesian products and why the geometric realization of a simplicial set (resp. cyclic set) is equipped with an action of the group of orientation preserving homeomorphisms of the segment…
Let G be a finite group. It has recently been proved that every nontrivial element of G is contained in a generating set of minimal size if and only if all proper quotients of G require fewer generators than G. It is natural to ask which…
Let $G$ be a finite group having a factorisation $G=AB$ into subgroups $A$ and $B$ with $B$ cyclic and $A\cap B=1,$ and let $b$ be a generator of $B$. The associated skew-morphism is the bijective mapping $f:A \to A$ well defined by the…
For $\Cc$ a $G$-category, we give a condition on a diagram of simplicial sets indexed on $\Cc$ that allows us to define a natural $G$-action on its homotopy colimit, and in some other simplicial sets and categories defined in terms of the…
The aim of this book is to show that the use of f-analytic families of finite type cycles (cycles having finitely many irreducible components, but not compact in general) in a given complex space may be useful in complex geometry, despite…
Let $G$ be a cyclic $p$-group or generalized quaternion group, $X\in \pi_0 S_G$ be a virtual $G$-set, and $V$ be a fixed point free complex $G$-representation. Under conditions depending on the sizes of $G$, $X$, and $V$, we construct a…
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the properties of spectral and tiling subsets of cyclic groups, with an eye towards the spectral set conjecture in one dimension, which states that a bounded measurable subset of $\mathbb{R}$…
We prove that the only separable commutative ring-objects in the stable module category of a finite cyclic p-group G are the ones corresponding to subgroups of G. We also describe the tensor-closure of the Kelly radical of the module…
In this paper we consider two functions related to the arithmetic and geometric means of element orders of a finite group, showing that certain lower bounds on such functions strongly affect the group structure. In particular, for every…
This paper explores the cohomology of linear cycle sets, focusing on extensions of a specific linear cycle set H by an abelian group I. We derive explicit formulas for the second cohomology group, which classifies these extensions, and…
Much research has been done on structures equivalent to topological or simplicial groups. In this paper, we consider instead simplicial monoids. In particular, we show that the usual model category structure on the category of simplicial…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$, let $R$ be a commutative ring and let $\mathcal{F}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$. We introduce the category $\overline{\mathcal{F}_{Rpp_k}}$ of…
Given a simplicial complex $X$, we construct a simplicial complex $\Omega X$ that may be regarded as a combinatorial version of the based loop space of a topological space. Our construction explicitly describes the simplices of $\Omega X$…
Given a construction $f$ on groups, we say that a group $G$ is \textit{$f$-realisable} if there is a group $H$ such that $G\cong f(H)$, and \textit{completely $f$-realisable} if there is a group $H$ such that $G\cong f(H)$ and every…
We define a model category structure on a slice category of simplicial spaces, called the "Segal group action" structure whose fibrant-cofibrant objects may be viewed as representing spaces $X$ with a coherent action of a given Segal group…
